School-College Partnership: How Good Is Our School? Self-Evaluation Series E
Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Education
This guide supports the central objective of ensuring that young people enjoy the best possible introduction to, and experience of, work-related learning through strong partnerships between schools and colleges. The process of self-evaluation using quality indicators has already had a
significant and positive impact on the quality of provision in Scottish schools and colleges. By adapting and focusing these procedures to support school-college collaboration in the self-evaluation process, staff will be able to reflect upon the learning experiences of pupils more effectively. As a result, they will be better placed to plan for improvement in learning and teaching, widening achievement and raising attainment. Provided are: (1) Self-evaluation in practice; (2) Quality indicators and workpads; (3) Worked examples; and (4) Sources of support. An Appendix is provided to support school managers in discussions with college staff on school-college partnerships. Questions to be asked by the school manager in a discussion with a senior manager are suggested.
